a stillness, disturbed (2018)

Program Note:

a stillness, disturbed is an intense 10 minute work for saxophone that begins with a drone that evolves and grows more intense over time until the entire work collapses in on itself. It was inspired by my experience with anxiety attacks. It is accompanied by the following poem:

a night so serenethe reflection of the starsand the stars are the same

lost in themirror

an imageofan imageofan imageofan image

untila tiny ripplereveals

a stillness, disturbed

our darkness becomes tangibleand I am lost once more- March 14, 2018
